    The problem with those NFL pre-draft work-outs is they don't measure heart.

    Brady clearly displayed that even at Michigan. However the "geniuses" in NFL front offices ignored it. Except for the Patriots and Bill Belichick who of course made the final call to draft him.

    Exactly

    I'm sure you have seen that pre draft pick of Brady in his underwear, he couldn't look anymore soft for a QB lol

    And even Bill passed him over 5 times!

    Yes, but don't forget that Brady was only the 6th QB taken, and at that time the Patriots had Drew Bledsoe.

    So drafting a QB high in that draft was not a priority.

    Little did he know that someday he'd be getting paid the sickest amount of money for simply commenting about a football game. ;)

    Farewell Ryno.
